(a) No.
(b) The endorsed Southern Inland Health Initiative (SIHI) Business Case (4 July 2011) defined the boundary of the SIHI catchment. This catchment area does not include towns within a reasonable driving distance of a regional centre. A reasonable driving distance is recognised as one (1) hour or approximately 100 kms.
Harvey does not fall into this category as it is 37 kms from Bunbury.
